Dragons Well Represented at Hero Conf
Vidali will not be the lone Dragon at the conference. He will be joined by Andy Groller, Director of Digital Advertising, Jonathan Ng, PPC Specialist and James Kravic, PPC Specialist. Each of them has different goals for what they want to get out of attending the conference.
“Networking with the top professionals in the PPC industry and discovering new ideas is priority for me at Hero Conf,” says Groller. “I hope to learn about tests we have not tried for our clients while sharing those that we have…that were successful, of course.”
“I am hoping to gain insight from others about what digital advertising tactics are working for them and how they have implemented these tactics as part of an overall strategy,” says Ng.
Kravic adds, “My goal is to network with as many industry experts as possible and learn new strategies from some of the top thought leaders in the PPC industry. I also want to eat a lot of Texas barbecue!”
Learning and Sharing at Part of Being a Dragon
